Appliancide - please don’t (rough song sketch) for whom the camera shakes

video upload by Appliancide

"Transcribed a few beats from fl studio into the Stoplerbeats text file. Patched this up to check one of them out. Ended up cooking up a patch worth letting simmer for a few days. Needs a little seasoning, but the flavor profile is there. Is that a hint of saffron you detect? No, it's reverb.

Suggested listening wardrobe: saturated earth tones"

"Got this #143 Solaris synthesizer in 2018 and sadly has mostly sat unused under its dust cover in that time. Tremendously deep digital synthesizer that can be programmed to make just about any sound you might be able to imagine, including convincing emulations of classics that are near impossible to tell from the real deal. It just ended up being a whole lot more machine than I need, literally everything can modulate everything else inside this machine."

"Oberheim Matrix-12 (a very early model) for sale. It’s in pretty good condition given it’s age. It has one issue and one issue only. The pitch and modulation levers are temperamental. They work but the allen screws on the potentiometers need to be tightened as it is strictly a mechanical issue. I just ignore it and use the levers gently. Other than that, it’s in full working order."

"It has all of the original factory presets. In the box you will find the original owner's manual, a first edition service manual, a software revision 1.4 manual, a factory stock patches guide, power cable, and a clear plastic dust cover.

In the pictures, the fluorescent displays look foggy but apparently the camera makes it look that way. They are actually much clearer."

Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world's most hated audio tools. Today we are going to talk about Roland System-8. Is this soon abandoned flagship synthesizer, little sibling of System-1, part of the Roland Aira range, virtual analog synth, Roland Cloud plugout host and overall eye-sore a future classic or just another expensive plastic toy? Is it worthy of the rich Roland Jupiter-8 and Roland Juno-106 legacy?

Part 1 here

"Rebuilt of the ultra rare SYNTON SYRINX Dutch keyboard synth.
I cannot compare but the unusual filter setting of
2 bandpass and 1 lowpass VCFs, with 4 different routings
give a lot of modulation freedom and rendition of rather unusual
sounds.

Since I am not a fan of black gear. I tried my best an contacted
ANALOG FX. And they had been so kind as to manufacture a
custom blue face synth which I have only seen in some
preproductions units and, of course, in the historical
SYNRINX which was available also in red.

So this is the first touch of synth tweaking is a bit rough
sometimes ;-)

Have fun!"
